The remittance slip did not come with a message, so there was naturally no explanation as to why there was extra money. The only way to find out was through letters from home.
Lin Lan pressed her fingerprints, put the money into her pocket in two parts, and thanked several staff members repeatedly.
"Go to the hospital quickly and cure the child's illness as soon as possible."
After Lin Lan left, several female staff members gathered together to gossip, "260 yuan, what does her man do to earn so much money?"
"The remittance address belongs to the military."
"He's an officer! It's amazing that a volunteer soldier can become an officer."
"How can someone get married so well?"
Lin Lan, who was envied for getting married, was very tired taking care of a child. Although the body belonged to the original owner, for some reason, the pain, fatigue, and enjoyment were brought by her soul.
So she can't endure hardship, can't bear grievances, and can't bear hardship, and no one else can.
She must ride a bicycle and must eat white flour and meat!
After leaving the post office, she wondered whether she should go to the school to look for Da Wang and Mai Sui first, but after looking at the weather, she decided to go to the hospital first.
Anyway, it’s not the first time that the brother and sister went to the county town together to deliver things to their uncle and aunt, and they will go home by themselves.
She took Xiaowang and sat on the stone at the hospital entrance to rest, as they really couldn't move.
I had been trying so hard to withdraw money before, but now that I had withdrawn the money, I didn't want to move anymore. I wanted to find a hotel to have a good meal, and then go to a guesthouse to sleep.
Unfortunately, she had no food coupons, so even if she had money she couldn't eat. It was really infuriating.
Little Wangser huddled beside her, pressing himself against her for a sense of security.
Lin Lan patted him and signaled him not to be afraid.
After resting for a while, Lin Lan stood up. Unexpectedly, she moved too violently and her vision went dark and she swayed all over.
"Be careful--" Someone supported her in time and prevented her from falling to the ground.
Lin Lan knew that it was probably caused by low blood sugar or low blood pressure. Sparks flickered in front of her dark eyes, and it took almost a minute before she could see clearly.
"Hey...fellow countryman, are you okay?" It was a very gentle voice that made people relax involuntarily.
Lin Lan rubbed her eyes and said, "Thank you. I'm fine. I just feel a little dizzy."
She thanked the person and saw that it was a male doctor in a white coat, about twenty-six or twenty-seven years old, with a gentle and handsome appearance, and a unique scholarly air.
He was looking at her with a faint smile, and his eyes looked a little strange.
Lin Lan quickly distanced herself from the male doctor and held Xiaowang's hand, while Xiaowang held her thighs tightly and refused to let go.
The doctor smiled and said, "You are here to see the child, right? My name is Yang Han..." He paused, and when Lin Lan didn't respond to the name, he continued, "I'm the surgeon here. I'll take you in."
Lin Lan quickly declined: "Don't bother you, we can go there by ourselves."
Since it was on the way, Yang Han accompanied them in. On the way, he learned about Xiaowang's condition and introduced Lin Lan to an old doctor named Liu, who could treat both ophthalmology and pediatrics.
At that time, there was no hospital that specialized in treating autism, and at most you could see a pediatrician.
Lin Lan thanked him and was about to leave with Xiaowang.
Yang Han: "Don't you think I look familiar?"
Lin Lan glanced at him and thought that this man was quite interesting. If someone was interested in her and wanted to get close to her, he would usually say "I think you look familiar". How could he say "I don't look familiar to you"?
The thought flashed through her mind and she found it funny. After all, she was now a rural woman with a child, and her luck in love...she thought it was better to forget it.
What else?
She walked to the door of the old doctor's office, looked back, and met Yang Han's smiling eyes.
She couldn't help but shudder, and quickly pushed the door open with Xiaowang.
The person who received them was an old doctor with white hair and beard. He wore reading glasses on his nose. The legs of the glasses were broken and hung on his ears with a rope.
He first examined the patient and then asked a lot of questions and used a lot of professional terms. Lin Lan didn't understand and she didn't ask what caused it.
Anyway, when the original owner was pregnant, she insisted on participating in the village struggle meeting to fight a fox spirit. As a result, she had a physical conflict with someone, which led to a stomach injury and premature birth, so Xiaowang's eyes were injured.
I guess it's possible that blood stasis is pressing on the eye nerves.
The old doctor said that I could wear glasses and prescribed some eye drops.
Lin Lan wondered if she could have an operation to cure the disease. "Doctor, can you give him a CT scan?"
The old doctor looked at her over his reading glasses and said, "Sister-in-law, you know how to take a CT scan? We don't have this thing yet." He only knew about this thing because he heard from young people that it was only available in foreign countries. It was amazing that a country sister-in-law could even name it.
Lin Lan immediately pretended to be stupid and smiled, "Oh, no? I heard the doctor in my village say to take a film like this."
The old doctor smiled and said, "We can't take X-rays in our small county, we have to go to the province. But I understand that. If the bones are damaged, you can get an X-ray. But the problem with this child's eyes cannot be taken with an X-ray."
Lin Lan is not a doctor and doesn't understand this, so just listen to him and try putting some eye drops on your eyes first.
The old doctor called a young doctor to help and took Xiaowang to have his eyes checked.
Xiaowang was still scared and held Lin Lan tightly, refusing to let go. Lin Lan had no choice but to follow him in and hold him.
After a busy day of inspection, I finally filled out the form and chose the glasses.
The old doctor suggested that she choose the cheapest one, as long as it works. After all, she is from the country and has no money, so it is amazing that she is willing to buy a pair of glasses.
As a result, he watched the country woman pick and choose, and finally she picked the best one, with crystal pieces and a copper frame, which cost more than seven dollars.
He couldn't help but look at Lin Lan twice more. It was rare to see a country woman with such courage in spending money.
Lin Lan is used to buying good things. She firmly believes that you get what you pay for. Ever since she became financially independent, she has insisted on buying only good things instead of cheap ones.
But when she paid, she found it was really expensive. It cost more than eight yuan in total. In the countryside, seeing a doctor and getting medicine only cost a few cents, so it was really expensive in comparison.
Lin Lan only felt the pain for a second before she happily paid.
After all, she had to spend as much money as possible to treat her child, so the glasses she chose were the best and most expensive, with silver frames, crystal lenses, and copper legs, specially made.
Anyway, the glasses are pretty nice. When Xiaowang doesn’t wear them anymore, they will still be an antique and not wasted.
If you can't get the glasses in one day, you have to wait for three days.
Lin Lan was stunned. It turned out that she had just spent a long time choosing just for the sake of appearance. She really didn't want to make another trip.
She tried to get along with the old doctor, "Doctor Liu, my mother and I walked all the way from Shanzui Village, a distance of fifty or sixty miles, from before dawn to noon. It's not easy to go back and have to make the same trip again. We can't afford to stay in the guesthouse, and we don't have any food coupons. Can you give them to us today? It doesn't matter if we go back later..."
The old doctor smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, this matter cannot be rushed. Three days is still fast. The special lens must be sent here from the district hospital."
Seeing this, Lin Lan had no choice but to give up.
When she thought about it, it was really difficult for farmers to move to the city.
Not only did they need to introduce themselves when they went out, but food was also a problem. The food they brought with them could only last for two meals, and it would go bad after a while. In the city, you need food coupons to eat, so how could people in the countryside have them?
If you want food coupons in the countryside, you have to go to the food administration office to exchange them with food. When you exchange them, you will only be given food coupons but no money. However, if you go out to eat, you still have to pay for the food coupons. The old farmers are in a lot of trouble. How can there be so much food at home? The little food itself can't fill their stomachs.
But if she were to come again, she would be really worried. Now her legs and feet hurt.
I don’t know why the same body with a different soul becomes so delicate!
Oh, I really want to have a bicycle.
She brought Xiaowang with her. They were both tired and hungry. Unfortunately, the cakes were all gone. Without food coupons, they would have nothing to eat even if they had money to eat in a restaurant.
She hesitated for a moment, wondering whether she should go to the hospital cafeteria to try her hand at class revolutionary sentiments and buy a steamed bun without having to use her ration coupons.
As a result, at this time in the afternoon, lunch was over and dinner was not yet served, so the store was not selling steamed buns. Besides, there was no such thing as steamed buns without food coupons, as the quantity was fixed.
"I'm hungry." Xiaowang shouted unconsciously.
Lin Lan thought for a moment and said, "Let's go around the neighborhood and see if we can pay the residents to buy us a cake."
She didn't have any hope. At that time, food stamps were more important than money. Without food stamps, one couldn't buy food even with money.
Many country people brought eggs to the city and secretly exchanged them for the city residents' food coupons. They didn't even want money, they just wanted the food coupons.
After all, food stamps are the qualification to buy food. Without this qualification, you cannot buy food even if you have money.
When she was carrying Xiaowang out, she met Yang Han again.
Lin Lan subconsciously pressed the money in her pocket. Why was he so enthusiastic? Could he really be interested in her?
She saw that Yang Han had handsome features and gentle and clear eyes, and did not look like a bad person, so she just murmured and was not afraid.
Yang Han asked: "Is the child okay?"
Very familiar tone.
Lin Lan looked at him in confusion. Even though they had just met, she still smiled and said, "Thank you, Doctor Yang, for your concern. Doctor Liu will prescribe a pair of glasses for me. Please come back in three days to pick them up."
Yang Han saw her and her child like that and knew they were hungry. "I have some extra steamed buns I bought for lunch. Bring your child to the cafeteria to eat."
Lin Lan couldn't help but have some ideas now.
Why should you be so nice to her for no reason?
Even if he is kind, there are so many poor people coming and going in front of this hospital. Can't he help them all?
After all, no one had extra food coupons at that time, and the extra food would probably be for dinner. Why give it to her?
Is he really interested in her?
In fact, the original owner was quite pretty. Even though she had given birth to five children, her figure was still slim and fit. It was just that her daily promiscuous behavior concealed her beauty.
Look, being a little bit normal can attract the attention of the opposite sex, even the gentle and handsome doctor notices her.
What a pity, she already has a husband.
"Thank you, Doctor Yang. No thanks."
Seeing how polite she was, Yang Han's eyes became more curious, and he asked with a half-smile, "Lin Lan, don't you recognize me?"
Stop flirting, I'm married!
Lin Lan smiled and said, "I should know you?"
